Mighty Emergence

Enchantment, 2G (3)
Whenever a creature with power 5 or greater enters the battlefield under your control, you may put two +1/+1 counters on it.1
Why settle for mere enormity?
Illus. Steve Prescott

Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]

  • 10/1/2008: The ability checks that creature's power only once: when that creature enters the battlefield. The trigger checks a creature's initial power upon being put on the battlefield, so it will take into account counters that it enters the battlefield with and static abilities that may give it a continuous power boost once it's on the battlefield (such as the one on Glorious Anthem). After the creature is already on the battlefield, boosting its power with a spell (such as Giant Growth), activated ability, or triggered ability won't allow this ability to trigger; it's too late by then. Once the ability triggers, it will resolve no matter what the creature's power may become while the ability is on the stack.
